When you go to bed at night, do you want to close the bedroom door? Many people make the wrong choice and tell their family members to keep it in mind

Is it better to sleep with the bedroom door open or closed?

Do you sleep at night with the door open or closed? Some say it's better to leave it open because it keeps the air circulating in the room, while others say it's better to keep it closed for privacy. Should it be on or off?

When we sleep at night, we need to inhale oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide every minute. If we close the doors and windows, too much carbon dioxide will accumulate in the room, which is not good for the body, and it will also feel stuffy. When people sleep, they inhale about 250 millilitres of oxygen and exhale about 300 millilitres of carbon dioxide per minute. If it is closed for a long time, there will be a lack of oxygen in the room, which will affect sleep.

Most of the rooms now have windows, so we can leave a small gap to open the windows and sleep in the cool wind at night, which is very comfortable. At the same time, it is advisable to install window screens to prevent mosquitoes from entering, and protective fences can also be installed to prevent children from climbing to pose a hazard.

But be sure to keep the bedroom door closed when you go to bed at night, because the slightest movement from the outside world can disturb our rest, especially before going to bed. In addition, if there are strangers or living with elders in the house, keeping the door closed can protect your privacy and allow you to sleep peacefully at night.

Indeed, if there is a gas leak or fire while we are deep asleep, if the door is opened, the smoke in the room will enter the room and bring us danger. But if we close the door, we can effectively stop the fire smoke from entering the room and better protect ourselves.

The correct thing to do is to close the bedroom door and open the window when you go to bed at night. If the door feels cold, you can reduce the gap in the window appropriately. This way the air in the room is circulated and we can get a good night's sleep.

Finally, if the bedroom is connected to the bathroom, always close the bathroom door when you go to bed at night. If left unclosed, the moisture and odors in the bathroom can spread into the bedroom, taking a toll on our health.

Now you know whether you should go to bed at night with the door open or closed.
